I’m sure I’m not the only one who keeps promising herself to start eating healthier and start exercising more several times a year. I thought I would make it a little more official by putting my words to paper (or blog)! Starting today I will be doing these “Weight Loss Wednesday” posts, so if you like to see what I will be doing the next weeks, keep on reading!

In these blog posts I will be talking about what I ate (not in detail) and of my week went well or not exercising and eating wise. Maybe I will add some pictures of what I ate or some recipes sometimes. I will mainly be using 2 websites to keep me going and to stay inspired about what to eat and what exercises to do: Tone It Up and Blogilates.

This is just a quick post to announce a new series I will be doing on my blog: Weight Loss Wednesdays! You’ve probably seen a lot of these pass by on other blog and some of them inspired me to do them myself, starting next wednesday!

This basically means I will be writing about my weight loss journey since I do want to lose some weight. I think putting my words to paper will make it harder for me to cheat and make it easier to stick to my weight loss plans.

I already have an idea of how my blog post will look, but if you have any suggestions or tips, please let me know in the comments. I love getting feedback and adjusting my blog to your needs and wants!

Today I’m just putting up another quick post! I failed once at my spending ban, let’s see how I will do this time!Vandaag een snel en kort artikeltje! Ik ben één keer gefaald in een spending ban, laten we eens kijken hoe ik het nu doe!

Last week I got the great news I was going to London again! I am super excited since in England there are so much more makeup and beauty brands than in Belgium! And that’s why I should start saving a little. I won’t be able to save a lot in this short amount of time (I’ll be there on the 8th and 9th of november), but every bit helps, right?Vorige week kreeg ik te horen dat ik weer naar Londen ging! Ik ben heel blij aangezien je in Engeland veel meer make-up en beauty merken hebt dan in België! En daarom moet ik beginnen sparen. Veel zal ik niet kunnen sparen in deze korte periode (Ik ben er 8 en 9 november), maar alle beetjes helpen, toch?

So now I have a little question for you guys! Are there any products I should get while there? I won’t be ably to get a lot since I’m only there for 2 days (1 night), but if there are some must haves that I can’t get in Belgium, I will definitely try my best to get them! So please let me know what brands and products you guys think I should get (beauty and makeup but also things like candles)! Nu heb ik een klein vraagje voor jullie! Vooral voor diegenen die vaker in Londen komen dan. Zijn er must haves die we in België niet kunnen krijgen en die ik zeker eens zou moeten uitproberen? Ik ben er niet lang maar ga wel mijn best doen om deze te kunnen kopen! Dus laat zeker even weten welke merken en producten ik zeker nog moet hebben (beauty en make-up, maar ook dingen zoals geurkaarsen)! Some things you might already help me with:– I REALLY want a beauty advent calendar! I was thinking about the Boots one or the Benefit one, but I think that last one will already sold out by then. Any other ideas?– Can I get Nyx somewhere in London?Hier kunnen jullie mijn misschien al mee helpen:– Ik wil echt heel graag een beauty advent kalender! Ik dacht aan die van Boots of Benefit, maar deze laatste zal waarschijnlijk al uitverkocht zijn als ik er ben. Andere ideetjes?– Is Nyx ergens in Londen te krijgen?

Can’t wait to get there and to show you guys what I got!Ik kan niet wachten om er te zijn en om jullie te laten zien wat ik gekocht heb!

If you follow me on twitter, you probably already know how my spending ban is going: I FAILED! Already! :p I thought I would be strong enough to survive the spending ban, but as soon as I received an e-mail from The Body Shop with some great deals, I couldn’t resist! Also, I forget that the RiRi hearts mac collection was going to be released this month and as a huge Rihanna fan, obviously I wanted some things from that collection. Failed again!

I decided not to give up this quickly! I will be doing another spending ban but I will be adapting it a bit *a.k.a. cheating?*! :p I don’t know when I will start yet (I will let you guys know), but I do know what I will change. I will only be allowed to buy some things with the weekly money I get from my parents to live in Leuven (where I study), which basically is the money I buy food from for the entire week. This means that I can only buy beauty products with the left over money, which isn’t a lot. Therefore it will still be hard for me, but I will be able to get some things if I really feel the urge. :p And I will stay away from my bank account, which already is really good for me!

Today I have another video for you guys! Some of you might know I went to London in september to do some beauty shopping. (For my London haul, click here!) I went for 2 days only and in this video I show you guys what I brought with me makeup wise. Hope you enjoy!

I tweeted about this a while ago, and today is the day that it starts, my spending ban! It just had to happen because ever since I started blogging I’ve been wanting to try out everything and I’ve been buying a lot (as you can see in my hauls, which isn’t even all of it). So I decided to stop buying things during the month of october.

I will be updating you guys every week and just to let you know beforehand, I will probably post another haul at the end of this month just because I still have some things that I bought, that aren’t in the haul yet (the reason for that you can find in my collective haul). So the products in that haul will be all of the things I bought up until yesterday, not in october (unless I fail, which I will let you guys know :D)!
